Recently prescribed Amlodipine 10mg after being told I need one stent after angiogram. I don't have high blood pressure and was told if I felt dizzy or faint to stop taking it as have moderate aortic stenosis.
6 hours after taking the second pill I had palpitations, irregular heart beats and my blood pressure dropped to 99/57. The next day felt terrible but slowly improved with blood pressure returning to normal.
I understand it's meant to lower BP. Every time I see a doctor my BP is up but ok at home. The unexpected reaction of irregular heartbeat for the rest of the day was scary. Anyone else had this reaction.
Haven't taken any more.
